M6073 & M6074

As promised, here are the two missing dresses that were supposed to be in the previous post:

McCalls 6073 Another quick project. This knit came from Fabric.com. This one came together quickly. I made a longer version from this pattern last year in Faye's stitch up a dress sew-alongs.

McCalls 6074 This is one easy dress to sew up. The pattern label entices you with "1 Hour Dress" and I have to say, it doesn't disappoint. If you cut out & sew all in one session, you might be able to pull that off. I usually don't rush because I always take my time.

The fabric is a jersey stretch knit print from Chicago Textile Outlet. I've made this dress twice before and will again I'm sure. Not much to say because it's so easy to do. It is perfectly comfortable for the 100 degree temps they are promising us for tomorrow.

Right now, I am working on two jackets, one with a dress the other with a skirt to take on a trip where I will be in a freezing convention center. McCalls Palmer/Pletsch 4930 OOP & Butterick 3638 OOP. Couldn't find pictures to link but will have for you to see when I review each project.
